We are going to be using this compiler for the work We are going to doon the gang charger. We are going to replace the ENE code with opensource stuff and then integrate the existing 1-wire sensor and batterycharging code into our framework. We are able to release this batterycharge code open source.

Use the 8051 simulators that are available and write some code thatboots up an 8051 and does some stuff. Like toggle IO and stuff.
